If I try the geolocation feature, it asks to share the location information, I agree and it has this error in the error console - "Error: location is undefined Source File: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/NetworkGeolocationProvider.js Line: 91" I use a NAT LAN so is this error due to my 192.168.1... address not generating a location? If it is shouldn't it use the external address given by the router. It should at least cope a bit better.

A wired connection would use the IP Address of your connection which wouldn't give pinpoint accuracy, but rather a location of your ISP. Is Firefox generating a crash report?

I should have called it a bug report I suppose. The error prevents it calling the failure function in the getCurrentPosition function. Other browsers all fail to find the location as well, so I guess that there is a null value for the location. It would be nice to know why, but in any case it is the same for all browsers, only FireFox falls over though.
